Hi! As of late last evening, my touchpad key (the left side key) appears to be stuck on my Dell XPS M1710 laptop since it doesn't work anymore. Using the touchpad allows me to move the arrow across the screen & I'm able to click on some things with the rightside key...but the leftside key (the important one...lol) shows that it's stuck according to the icon in the lower righthand corner. According to information found through the Control Panel, my touchpad mouse is reporting that it's functioning properly.

So, I guess my question is - how do I go about unsticking this leftside key without damaging it? Is there a way to properly "pop" the key off & put it back on?

Any help would be unbelievably appreciated!
